The Irish Aboard Titanic

Senan Molony

Synopsis

The unspeakable tragedy of the Titanic disaster can only be fully appreciated through the tales of the people who were aboard on the night the ship went down. The Irish Aboard Titanic gives those people a voice, focusing on the Irish who were aboard the 'unsinkable' liner. In it are stories of agony, luck, self-sacrifice, dramatic escapes and heroes left behind. Senan Molony also records the heartache that continued long after that fateful night. In her wake the Titanic cast a long shadow over the families forced to endure the agonising wait to learn the fate of loved ones, over the lives of the survivors who had to start their lives anew and over those who lost relatives and friends. If you want to know about the Irish passengers and crew of the Titanic, this is the only book to have.

Ghana Empire - The Land of Gold...

Rolf Hedger

The Ghana Empire, also known as Wagadou, emerged as one of the earliest and most influential states in West Africa. Situated in the Sahel region, between the Senegal and Niger rivers, it thrived in an environment that was both challenging and advantageous for settlement and expansion. The Soninke people, who founded the empire, played a crucial role in establishing a political and economic system that allowed Ghana to dominate the region for centuries.
The origins of the Ghana Empire can be traced to the migrations and settlements of the Soninke, a Mande-speaking group, who gradually organized themselves into small communities. These communities initially relied on agriculture, herding, and local trade but soon recognized the value of the trans-Saharan trade routes that passed through their territory. The strategic location of Ghana, near valuable gold deposits and trade routes, allowed it to grow into a powerful state. The Soninke clans, under the leadership of a ruling dynasty, established centralized control, which set the foundation for the empire’s expansion.
The political structure of early Ghana was based on a hierarchical system, with the king, known as the Ghana, at the top. The title "Ghana" was both a royal designation and a symbol of authority. The king served as the supreme leader, making key decisions related to governance, trade, and military strategy. His power was reinforced by a council of elders and advisors, often drawn from the nobility and influential families. This system enabled stability and continuity, which contributed to the long-term success of the empire.

Difficult - Mothering...

Judith R. Smith

Told from the perspective of mothers who've lived it, Difficult focuses on mothering challenging adult children. 
 
 
 
Difficult brings to life the conflicts that arise for mothers who are confronted with the unexpected and burdensome dependencies of their adult children associated with mental illness, substance use, or chronic unemployment. Through real stories of mothers and their challenging adult children, this book offers accessible, provocative, and, at times, shocking illustrations of the excruciating maternal dilemma: Which takes precedence—the needs of the mother or of the distressed adult child? Difficult addresses a family situation which too many keep secret. The book allows listeners to see that they are not alone. 
 
 
 
Judith Smith speaks empathically to parents, acknowledging and illuminating the embarrassment, shame, and helplessness that women can feel when their adult children's problems puncture their own feelings of self-worth. In the absence of sufficient supports and affordable housing for persons with mental illness or substance misuse disorder, mothers feel that they have no choice—"if not me, then who?" Unpaid and unrecognized maternal caregiving work continues to limit women's quality of life, even into their later years. Smith addresses this as a societal issue which requires structural solutions.
